25 Antiques I'd Buy Now if I Could

Old beats new everytime

Some more attainable pieces while others are the stuff of decorative fantasy, I would snaffle all of the below into my home if I could. Even if something is out of price range or like me, you have minimal wall/floor/ceiling space left to fill, I always find antiques browsing a great way to reinspire and hone in on what I genuinely like.

Love this perforated metal mirror for something a bit different.
1950s wall mirror, £595

Arts and crafts is a favourite era of mine for wooden furniture and this little side table sums it up.
